One thing I will give it props for is that it was capable of actual high definition resolutions like 720p...in 2001
I mean... did it really have to be that big?

Because the whole side of the xbox is dedicated to a PC hard drive, it didnt use flash like the PS2 did. That's why it had 10GB of internal storage which was crazy back in the 2000s

ps2 can do 1080
Juan Smith
PS2 has a whole fucking 3.5" hdd bay in it
Jaxson Lewis
1080i on four games. Pretty sure the PS2 exclusively outputs in 480i with some supporting 480p at the very most.

Dreamt I found one of these behind a building last night, one of the transparent green ones. Kinda want one for real now but also fear that I've been subliminally advertised to by MS.

Could've been way smaller with a laptop-style DVD and hard drives.
As far as other components go, it's just a high-end early 2000's gaming laptop.
Isaiah Allen
does it really matter. you're not going to be carrying it around with you.
and it's nearly as big as an xbox

But what if I am?
Ayden Roberts
PS2 did 1080i on gran turismo, and even then it wasn't actually rendering at 1920x1080,it was much smaller. Autismo.
Anthony Sanders
why not just use, idk, a switch?
what could possibly be so important that you need an xbox.
Andrew Brown
good for you i guess but that's a 360
xbox at least had an internal power supply
Adrian Diaz
Don't bother, the disc drives on almost all of them are fucked now, and most have leaky clock capacitors that are eating away at the motherboards
Oliver Roberts
disregard my post I get it now, thats what they used for lan tournaments.

Just softmodded one of these big niggers two days ago. Currently chuggin 100s of gigabytes worth of Xbox games while waiting for new HDD and molex splitter to arrive.
Easton Kelly
The OG xbox is one of the few consoles where the condition of the disc drive literally doesn't matter.
Just mod it and load all your "legit" backups from the hdd.
Dominic Richardson
I have 2 and that's not accurate. Also mod them so you can install games via ftp instead of relying on old dvd drives. You can even put sata drives in them if you find an adapter that fits.
Asher Edwards
Noah Ramirez
doesnt it have 2 disk drives it switches between?
one for dvds and one for games
Jeremiah Hill
no
i remember some computers of the time had 2 disc drives though. probably 1 for cd and 1 for dvd.
Jaxon Turner
The difference in power between the Xbox and the PS2 is amazing considering they were only launched 1 year apart.

>he wasn't playing 25 to life in 720p
modded xboxs have the ability to rip it to hard drive with a button press. I have both my real collection and a binder of burnt dvds.
Juan Ramirez
>he wasn't playing 25 to life
wouldn't be missing out on much desu. game's a solid 4
Nathaniel Sanders
i know
there used to be subgenre of gangster games that don't exist anymore. 25 to life, 187 ride or die, def jam, the list goes on...
Lucas Peterson
i miss those
had fun playing 50 cent bulletproof and the def jams. 25 to life is just bad though. i know 187 but never got a chance to play
Josiah Sullivan
>missing nigger-tier games
Parker Brooks
it was a different time
Logan Richardson
Why were they so big?
Austin Butler
your moms a nigger-tier game bruh
Lincoln Barnes
for some reason it also used a desktop disc drive rather than a laptop sized one
The upper half of the volume of the Xbox is completely devoted to the hard drive and the disc drive. The actual console is only the lower half.
